Han Y/n POV

　　…

　　Tears keep rolling from my eyes as my cheeks still stinging from the pain due to the non-stop slap I endured from them, Hyun Mira, the only daughter of our principal and her minions. They always drag me to the restroom and beat me up there until they don’t have enough energy to beat me and leave after that. I’m forcing myself to stand up by holding at the sink for support with my other hand on my stomach. As I successfully stand up I saw my face at the mirror. Full of bruises and cuts, tears keep rolling. I washed my face and let my hair just fall to hide the other bruises on my face. I quickly picked up my bag and exited the restroom walking with my head down. While I’m own my way to my next class I bumped into someone. Basically, it’s a guy.

　　“I’m sorry.” I apologized didn’t even turn to see him but I heard him say “it’s fine.” I didn’t stop my pace and walked directly to my next class. Fortunately, our teacher is not here yet. I sat on my seat and open my notes for review then after a minute our teacher finally arrived and greet us. To be honest, I didn’t listen to everything that she says and just focused on my notes then someone took the empty seat next to me. New student I guess, I took a glance to my side and I could tell that it’s a guy because of his uniform. I can sense that he’s staring at me and like waiting for me to turn my head to face him but I didn’t. I’m the top 1 in the class but I’m not sociable or friendly since all of the students in this school are toxic people. Usually, if you're a top student people would friendly with you and admire you but in my life it tells the opposite. I don’t have a friend even one and I guess this one here will be just like the other students who always judge me or bully me. After the class, all of the girls in the room rushed over to him never forgetting to send me a disgusted look because he’s sitting next to someone like me which I didn’t care.

　　“Oppa, why did you choose to sit here? You shouldn’t be sitting next to a girl like her.”

　　“Next time, sit beside me Oppa.”

　　“Oppa let’s hang out together. Okay?”

　　They said while giggling and almost sitting on his lap but the guy didn’t even respond to them. I put all my notes and book inside my bag and stood up not taking a look to the guy sitting beside me.  He's about to leave too but struggling to get away from those girls fangirling over him.

　　I went to the big tree near the school and sat under. It’s my favourite place, where I can see the sunset and have some peaceful mind. I come here almost every day especially when I’m depressed and crying. I noticed that dead leaves are falling from the tree. Right, today is the first day of autumn season, the third season of the year when crops and fruits are gathered and leaves fall.

　　Looking at the sun shining so bright at me I didn’t realized that my tears are falling again until it dropped on my hand. I wish all my worries and pain will fall easily just like those dead leaves in the autumn season. I think loudly, sighed and picked some dead leaf and wrote something then went on my way home.

A/n:She wrote on the dead leaf

:

　　“Even in different season, I’m always falling to the ground like a dead leaves…and no one would care.”

　　…

　　Author’s POV

　　You went on your way home after you let some of your emotion out under the tree and left the dead leaf there but little did you know that someone’s quietly staring at you from afar while you were crying. After you leave he walked to the place where you sat and there he saw the dead leaf you have wrote on. He picked up the dead leaf and read it, after reading it he put it in his notebook and leave.

　　Another day of school and you’re at your seat as usual reading your lectures while putting on your earphone pretending that you’re listening to a music because you don’t want them to bother you. Since the teacher has not yet arrived to your classroom you decided to scribble something on your notes but this time you are really listening to music in a full blast sound so you won’t hear any negative words from them.

　　Someone sat on the empty chair next to you, it’s the new guy. You didn’t even bother to look at him and just focusing on the words you’re writing on your notes. He’s been looking at you the whole time and you sensed that and it annoys you so you finally turned your head to face him and there you saw him, your eyes have met with his own and he was surprised at your sudden turn. You see that the guy has baby pinked hair, broad shoulders, plump lips, tall and really handsome like an angel. No wonder all the girls yesterday keep fangirling at him at the first place. But for you it’s just seem normal as you didn’t feel attracted to him because you’re focusing more on your goals to finish your studies which is hard for your heart to accept someone to knock on the door of your heart. But would it be just like that forever?

　　Y/n’s POV

　　“What? I can sense that you’re looking at me the whole time.” I said and he was just silent there still looking at me so I snapped a finger in front of him because he seemed like spacing out.

　　“Oh, I’m sorry.” He mumbled giving me a shy smile then I get back to my notes and continued what I’m doing.

　　After a few minutes someone came and informed us that our teacher is absent today and with that, all of my classmates cheered up and exited the classroom except me…and him. I decided to stay for a while, wanting to be alone to have some peace of mind. I thought he’s going to leave but he didn’t.

　　I took a glance on him and he was there leaning his back on the chair while closing his eyes. Is he sleeping? I shrugged off my thoughts and look outside from the window, watching those dead leaves from the trees. I sighed and feel the wind blows from the window hitting my face.

　　The sound of him clearing his throat got my attention.

　　Turning my head to head to him, "What is it?” I asked him and he was like hesitating to say something which got me curious so I waited for him to speak since I didn’t heard him speak to any of our classmates even those girls who approached him yesterday.

　　“Hi, I’m Kim Seokjin the new student and I just transferred here yesterday.” He shyly introduced and offered his hand for handshake. What is he doing? Is he trying to be friends with me? Is he joking? I guess he already heard some rumours about me yesterday. Since he looked innocent I shrugged off my thoughts and took his hand and shake it.

　　“I’m Han Y/n.” I replied and give him a small smile and he did the same.

　　His eyes, they sparks when he smile.

　　His hand is soft and veins are not clear to see, it seems like he doesn’t do something like house chores. I can tell the way he wears his new uniform, he’s accessories, expensive cell phone, and even his face which you can’t see even just a slight dark circles or signs of stress. He’s rich. While me, totally stress and doesn’t wear any accessories, wearing an old uniform, low class cell phone and the worst is my hands look more manly than his because of the veins popping out due the daily house chores that I’m the only one who does since my grandma is too weak to do that due to her illness. I quickly pulled my hand and placed it on my lap due to embarrassment.

　　“Um, if it’s okay to you…can we eat together and tour me around the school after that? But it’s okay if you don’t want.” He shyly said while rubbing the back of his neck. I think for a few seconds and decided to agree with his offer so I nodded yes to him and he smiled at me. We picked up our bags and went outside. Since the teachers decided to set an urgent meeting they won’t have classes in the afternoon so all of the students went to the field to have some fun and other businesses while me and Seokjin went to the cafeteria and eat there alone just the two of us.

　　“Why me?” I asked directly while we are eating and he seemed confused.

　　“Why all of the students here in school, you chose to approach me?” I cleared it fof him and he almost choke on his food, he drank a glass of water and cleared his throat.

　　“I-i…I don’t like them.” He shook his head.

　　“Why?” I asked looking straight at him in the eyes to see if there’s a hints of lies.

　　“Because you’re different from them so I think it’s good if I’ll be friends with you.” he explain giving me the soft gaze I've ever seen.
